Just watched Casey's episode about performance on The Pragmatic Engineer. My favorite part is:
- Are you using AI to make your new game?
- No
- Why?
- Because I don't want to
And then Casey compares himself to an organic farmer guy vs IKEA factory manager.
I relate to this a lot, and this is why I don't use AI for my side projects. Not because of some made-up ethical or productivity reason. I just simply don't want to, and I like that I don't have to justify it.
Also, I've been sleeping on Gergely Orosz until recently, great podcast!
